I'm just hoping this isn't the case where it ends up actually being 12M or so, and it was leaked at a higher level so fans warm up to the idea of paying him a ton. Similar to how Russell's contract was leaked at 18M but became 16M the next day.

If McDavid's cap hit is north of 13M, I think that's about as best case scenario to hope for given the circumstances.
